    *insert dumbass face here*

    Quick synopsis:

    - 61 years old
    - Owner of a commercial HVAC outfit in Montreal
    - Was a tech for 30 years before retiring my own service truck
    - First car engine rebuild at age 15
    - First motorcycle rebuild at age 19
    - Cut a 12.6 1/4 mile with my first hot rod

    So why the above? To brag? It coulda been to brag, but no. This is a declaration of stoopid.
    Crawled underneath the 2020 Honda CR-V AWD we bought for our daughters yesterday to do the first oil change. Looked carefully prior to make sure I didn't screw anything up but hey, how complicated can it be, right?

    Wanna guess? Ended up draining the transmission/front-axle instead. Feel like a fool and decided I would continue that feeling by broadcasting my mistake on this site.
    I'll understand if the mods see fit to banish me from this site forever....LOL

    We are all human. I can't count (or even remember) how many stupids I have done. BTW that sounds like something I would do.
